For a month, Xiao Chen spent a month in hard cultivation, spending countless soul spirit grasses and soul spirit stones, and finally successfully promoted from the ninth level of the Condensing Martial Realm to the tenth level.

This incident made the old marquis ecstatic, and in just three months, his grandson jumped from a fourth-level wasted person to a tenth-level waste, which is an unprecedented speed.

And there was one thing that made him even happier, that is, he had stayed at the third level of the Chemical Martial Realm for more than forty years, and because he had refined four soul bones, he had also been promoted to the fourth level of the Chemical Martial Realm.

You must know that when a person gets older, his cultivation speed will slow down, and he will even stay in a certain level, and there will be no change until he dies.

Xiao Tianhao has long been dead set on his ability to be promoted, and this promotion has broken the stagnation of the past, which means that there is still the possibility of continuing to upgrade in the future.

Because the two vertebrae on the back waist have completed the soul bone refining, which has a good impact on the kidneys next to them, the old man is full of energy every day, and his white hair even shows signs of turning black.

Regarding the matter of soul bones, the ancestors and grandchildren were tight-lipped, and they would never spread it until the right time.

The little marquis walked out of the door and stretched.

For a whole month, he barely went out of the door, and even every meal was delivered to the door, and when he felt hungry, he would open the door and take it in to eat.

This month was really peaceful, Xiao Tianhao used his social connections to organize a team of 100 generals to firmly control the mine in his own hands.

Moreover, he ordered to increase the mining of soul spirit stones, increasing the output from one thousand a day to two thousand, earning huge profits for the family.

This matter is also the main reason why Xiao Chen's soul spirit stones can always be guaranteed in quality and quantity during the one-month cultivation process, if it weren't for the fact that there is a mine, even if it is the Marquis's Mansion, it can't withstand such a big consumption.

"Chen'er, I'm going to Deling City tomorrow, you should be careful all the way. Xiao Tianhao looked at his excellent grandson with burning eyes, and said, "Grandpa wants to sit at home, I can't accompany you over, I estimate that Pi Zhendong will take advantage of this opportunity to make some small moves on you." But fortunately, they went to Deling City, covered by Liu Zhizhang, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous. ”

"I see, Grandpa. The little marquis said confidently: "Don't worry, your grandson will definitely come back to see you unscathed, and he will definitely get a good score in the big exam." ”

The Zongmen big exam, once every three years, the test center is set up in a place above the city level, and it is impossible to set up a test center in the county, so candidates must go to the nearest city to register for it.

Early the next morning, Xiao Chen mounted his horse and came to Deling City after a long journey.

The Zongmen University Examination is a very important event, many candidates are accompanied by their parents, and with the integration of many people, Deling City is more prosperous.

The little marquis went straight to the Deling Mansion, and as soon as he arrived at the door, a blue-purple figure burst out of it, shouting in his mouth: "Xiao Chen, you are finally here, do you dare to have a discussion with Miss Ben?"

It's Liu Fei'er, she has been waiting at the door for a long time. In the past month or so, she has worked harder than Xiao Chen, except for the necessary meal time, compressed the rest time to two hours a day, and the rest of the time is all in cultivation.

Last time, Xiao Tianhao gave Liu Zhizhang 3,000 soul spirit stones, and the fat man put them into his daughter's practice room almost intact.

Liu Fei'er, who was originally at level seven, was promoted to level eight within a few days, and even rose to level nine last night, thinking that she would definitely be able to defeat Xiao Chen, so she waited for him to appear at the door.

The little marquis was still riding on horseback, and pouted at him and said, "Fei'er, you are a beautiful lady, how can you not be polite?

Liu Fei'er blushed: "You can be a gentleman, why should I be everyone's lady?" Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and follow me to the martial arts arena, let's have a try...... Hey, what level are you now?"

She remembered that a month ago, Xiao Chen was only at the eighth level of the Condensing Martial Realm, even if he cultivated desperately, he couldn't mix up the ninth level, how could he not look like a ninth level?

"Sister Fei'er, I'm really embarrassed. The little marquis smiled and said, "I am now at the tenth level of the Condensing Martial Realm, just a little higher than your ninth level, are you sure you want me to stage a martial arts field with you?"

Liu Fei'er's original expression of joy was suddenly shrouded in a layer of dark clouds, and she shouted unconvinced: "How can this be, why are you level ten, it's so unreasonable! During the Six Cities Competition, you were only level six, and the last time you fought against the officers and soldiers in the mine, it was only level eight, and it has only been a few days, and it is level ten!"

"Hey, what do you mean by that?" Xiao Houye's face was tense: "Didn't you yourself also upgrade from level seven to level ninth, and if you are allowed to upgrade, others will not be allowed to upgrade?"

"Hmph, I don't care if others upgrade, I won't be able to see it if you upgrade!" Liu Fei'er snorted.

Although the last time she was eaten tofu has long passed, she has always had a wish in her heart, that is, to defeat Xiao Chen. I finally upgraded myself, and I felt that the opportunity had come, but in the end, it was a bamboo basket for nothing.

"Fei'er, who are you talking to?" The fat man Liu walked over with a body of fat shaking, and when he saw Xiao Chen, his small eyes directly lit up: "It turns out that the nephew has arrived, why are you still standing at the door, come in quickly." Just now, Shibo was still talking about you, I haven't seen your aunt yet, so let's go and follow me in. ”

Whether it's to see your aunt or your mother-in-law to see your son-in-law, you have to make it clear first, otherwise the master won't go in.

There was no way, Liu Fat Man was so enthusiastic, Xiao Chen was almost dragged in by him, and Liu Fei stomped his feet angrily.

Liu Zhizhang had already registered for Xiao Chen, and early the next morning, the two went to the examination room under the escort of a group of generals.

According to the calm character of the little marquis, he absolutely disagrees with the matter of the family general escorting, which is too ostentatious.

But Liu Fatzi has always insisted, saying that his safety must be guaranteed, otherwise there is no way to explain to Xiao Tianhao.

The examination room is located in the central square of Deling City, densely packed with people, most of them are parents of candidates and watching the excitement, the special passage in the south is specially opened for candidates, and idle people are not allowed to enter.

The first item of the preliminary assessment is the strength test.

At the entrance of the examination room, something similar to a boxing sandbag was set up, and below it was an iron plate inlaid with several green gemstones, each of which represented a hundred catties of weight.

What is tested: one-handed strength.

The requirement is to play more than 400 catties of strength with one hand, to be considered to pass, those who fail are not even qualified to enter, and each candidate has three chances to try.

The test line was very long, from teenagers to young people in their early twenties, and many of them obviously did not take the big test for the first time, and their faces were full of confidence.

Xiao Chen and Liu Fei'er consciously lined up, and the person in front of them played 700 catties of strength, and immediately won a round of applause.

The strength of five hundred catties is not a small challenge for the soul warriors of the Condensing Martial Realm, without the increase of the martial soul, every time the level rises, the strength of one hand will increase by fifty catties correspondingly, and if you want to play the strength of four hundred catties, you must be at least an eighth-level soul warrior.

The candidate who was being tested at the moment was an eighth-level soul warrior without a martial soul, and because he was too nervous, the first two punches failed to play at a normal level, so that the fourth emerald only emitted a faint light.

The third punch, still because of nervousness, failed to meet the requirements, the examiner said expressionlessly: "Three times, elimination, next!"

The eliminated candidate looked like he was not too young, and he left dejectedly.

If you can't enter the sect, the only way out is to join the army, serve as a private soldier for the Xunguimen, etc., which is far worse than joining the sect to save face.

Many people in front of him were brushed off, and Xiao Chen asked, "Fei'er, is it okay?"

"Of course, Miss Ben is a ninth-level soul warrior, and with the increase in martial souls, it is no problem to hit five hundred catties, let alone four hundred catties. Liu Fei'er said confidently.

Soon, it was her turn, and she first handed her name tag to the examiner, and then stood in the testing position.

People who participated in the sect examination for the first time were inevitably nervous, and Liu Fei'er was the same, the first punch was a little sloppy, but the result was only more than 300 catties of strength, and her pretty face immediately became red.

"Fei'er, don't be discouraged, calm down. The little marquis shouted from behind.

Liu Fei'er took a deep breath, and at the same time released her martial spirit, solemnly swung her right fist, and hit the sandbag hard.

The five emeralds shone brightly at the same time, and the examiner smiled and nodded, saying, "Seventeen years old, ninth-level condensing martial realm, five hundred catties of strength, very good, pass the test!"

Obviously, the examiner group has Liu Fei'er's detailed information, who makes the family the only daughter of the old one in Deling City, and it is normal to receive more attention.

Liu Fei'er nodded towards Xiao Chen, and then walked into the examination room.

Next, it was time for the little marquis, he shook his right arm and walked over, in fact, he also wanted to know how heavy his punch was.
